Ingredients
- 1.25 pound chicken breast (boneless, skinless, cut into 5 thin cutlets)
- 0.75 teaspoon salt
- 0.38 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 ounce cremini mushrooms (sliced)
- 2 clove garlic (minced)
- 0.5 cup dry white wine
- 0.5 cup chicken broth
- 0.25 cup heavy cream
- 0.25 cup fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
- 1.5 pound green beans (trimmed)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. On a baking sheet, toss the green beans with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper. Roast for 12-15 minutes, or until tender-crisp.
- While green beans roast, pat chicken cutlets dry and season both sides with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken cutlets and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add sliced cremini mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes until browned and softened. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in dry white wine and chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, reducing slightly.
- Stir in heavy cream and bring the sauce back to a gentle simmer. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, coating it in the sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes to heat through.
- Serve the white wine mushroom chicken alongside the roasted green beans. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
